An interactive sequential-decision benchmark from geosteering
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)During drilling, to maximize future expected production of hydrocarbon resources, the experts commonly adjust the trajectory (geosteer) in response to new insights obtained through real-time measurements. Geosteering ... -
Joint History Matching of Multiple Types of Field Data in a 3D Field-Scale Case Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-08)This work presents an ensemble-based workflow to simultaneously assimilate multiple types of field data in a proper and consistent manner. The aim of using multiple field datasets is to improve the reliability of estimated ... -
A laboratory scale approach to wettability restoration in chalk core samples
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Wettability in chalk has been studied comprehensively to understand fluid flow mechanisms impacting coreflooding experiments. Wettability becomes paramount in understanding the parameters influencing chalk-fluid interactions. ... -
Load mitigation method for wind turbines during emergency shutdowns
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-02)Wind turbines experience countless shutdowns during their lifetimes. A shutdown is a transient process characterised by a pitch-to-feather manoeuvre of three blades. Such a pitch manoeuvre is often collective, open-loop, ... -
Modelling of creep compacting outcrop chalks injected with Ca-Mg-Na-Cl brines at reservoir conditions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Numerical and analytical 1D solutions are presented to interpret the link between geochemical alterations and creep compaction (compaction under constant effective stress) in chalk cores. Chemically reactive flow enhancing ... -
Numerical modelling of a high temperature borehole thermal energy storage system: Norway case study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Global warming is threatening life on earth. Utilising renewable energy is considered as the most effective measure to minimise anthropogenic CO2 emissions. High-temperature borehole thermal energy storage (BTES) systems ... -
Optimum directional well path design considering collapse and fracture pressures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Well path optimisation is often done based on the wellbore stability where the production related concerns are ignored. In fact, many of the studies carried out in the past have not included hydraulic fractures into their ... -
Polysulphate: A New Enhanced Oil Recovery Additive to Maximize the Oil Recovery From Carbonate Reservoirs at High Temperature
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Seawater (SW) injection is an enhanced oil recovery (EOR) success in the North Sea carbonate reservoirs due to wettability alteration toward a more water-wet state. This process is triggered by the difference in composition ... -
Porosity Evolution during Chemo-Mechanical Compaction
(Chapter, 2018)This chapter presents the constitutive equations necessary to interpret laboratory and field data when both solid and pore volume evolve through time due to chemical and mechanical processes. The equations for the porosity ... -
Potential for improving the efficiency of terrigenous oil deposits waterflooding with the use of low salinity technology at fields of the Tatarstan Republic

Prediction of Stress Correction Factor for Welded Joints Using Response Surface Models
(Chapter, 2021)While performing fatigue reliability analysis of the butt-welded joints it is vital to estimate the Stress Concentration Factor (SCF) at these joints. A common approach adopted by industry to estimate the SCF at weld toes ... -
Probabilistic model-error assessment of deep learning proxies: an application to real-time inversion of borehole electromagnetic measurements
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The advent of fast sensing technologies allow for real-time model updates in many applications where the model parameters are uncertain. Once the observations are collected, Bayesian algorithms offer a pathway for real-time ... -
PTA-metrics for time-lapse analysis of well performance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Monitoring of a well and the surrounding reservoir performances is a crucial component in evaluating on-going and planning future well and field operations. This is carried out at all stages of a well life-span: from ... -
Reaction kinetics determined from core flooding and steady state principles for Stevns Klint and Kansas chalk injected with MgCl2 brine at reservoir temperature
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)A methodology is presented for determining reaction kinetics from core flooding: A core is flooded with reactive brine at different compositions with injection rates varied systematically. Each combination is performed ... -
Simulation of immiscible WAG injection in a stratified reservoir -- performance characterization using a new dimensionless number
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Water alternating gas (WAG) is a well‐established enhanced‐oil‐recovery process where gas and water are injected in alternating fashion. Good volumetric sweep is achieved as water and gas target both the oil residing in ... -
Simulation study of wettability alteration enhanced oil recovery during co-current spontaneous imbibition
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Naturally fractured reservoirs are highly dependent on capillary forces to recover hydrocarbons during water injection. Water can spontaneously imbibe and expel oil if positive capillary forces exist; purely counter-current ... -
Steady State Gas Flow from Tight Shale Matrix Subject to Water Blocking
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)This work studies 1D steady-state flow of gas from compressible shale matrix subject to water blocking toward a neighboring fracture. Water blocking is a capillary end effect causing wetting phase (e.g., water) to accumulate ... -
